California water update: No, Californians, you won't be fined $1,000 if you shower and do laundry the same day

Sacramento Bee   "No, Californians, it's not against the law to shower and do laundry on the same day — even though loud voices in the conservative blogosphere are claiming it is.

"Taking aim at two water-conservation laws signed last week by Gov. Jerry Brown, a conspiratorial far-right financial blog called Zero Hedge reported Sunday that Californians could be fined $1,000 a day if they bathe and wash their clothes on the same day.

""If you don't plan to comply it's going to be way cheaper to move," the blog post stated.

"The bogus information, which appears to have originated on a site called "The Organic Prepper," was widely disseminated on Twitter and Facebook, and cited by several conservative websites, including the Federalist Papers and Breitbart.

"Joe Walsh, a conservative radio host and former congressman with 139,000 Twitter followers, shared a link to the blog post Monday and added: "California is awful. Just awful."

How much is the fine if you dare to take a shower, do laundry, AND run your sprinklers all in the same day?

"Republican U.S. Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Tulare, didn't link to the post, but he expressed his frustration on his blog that Californians would face "draconian" showering and laundry restrictions because of "environmental extremists and the Democrats."

" 'Californians don't want to have to choose between doing their laundry and taking a shower," he said.

"Those claims, however, aren't true. The shower and laundry police won't be knocking on doors anytime soon.

"The two bills, AB 1668 and SB 606, set general guidelines for water agencies to follow in California's post-drought era.

"Water agencies will be encouraged to have their customers limit indoor water use to an average of 55 gallons a day per person, declining to 50 gallons by 2030.

"But that's just a target a water district will be asked to meet across its ratepayer base, as part of a broader "water budget" strategy.

"Assemblywoman Laura Friedman, D-Glendale, author of AB 1668, accused Zero Hedge, Nunes and others of spreading "pure fiction.' "

It is within the parameters of what we expect from California. If a state elects people like Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris and a governor called "Moonbeam", the default opinion of that state would be scorn and ridicule.  The Tunnel Dweller.
